Standing Up For You
Never for the sake of peace and quiet deny your own experience. Dag Hammarskjold.
Each of us has a set of values and a belief system by which we do our best to live our lives. It’s not always easy and sometimes necessitates putting a little water in our wine.
Life being what it is, though, from time to time you will come up against a red line issue that will test these values. It might be at work or in a personal relationship but there will be something or someone with who challenges your view or take on life – and you have to take a stand.
Often it is not pleasant but if it is a red line issue, you have to dig in and stand up for you – even when your courage is thin.
It’s one thing to stand up to your enemies. It’s quite another to stand up to your friends and family.
